agold_12 asked:

Ok, so i’m looking to buy a new car, the honda civic, 06 or 07, heres a pic of what it looks like. http://www.motorpoint.com.au/car_images/honda_civic_1.jpg. I would like the manual b/c its cheaper by 2000 dollars. I have currently a 97 lexus es300 with 75,000 miles on it or 118,000km. I am in Canada and the new civic manual cost 18,995. Whats it cost in the u.s. The honda company offered me 2500 for the lexus, I feel i am being ripped off, don’t you? They offered me to lease, $350, on a 7 year lease? For those of you have the new body civic, what do you pay monthly?
if the first link does not work, try this one.

  • Honda Civic buying questions.?

    honda
    lilrandy415916 asked:

    Hi i wa wondering should i buy a honda civic EX 1999 for 3200 with 75481 miles and a clean title. Or a 1997 honda civic EX with clean title for 3295. Both are automatic, and private dealers. Or should i save up for a Honda Civic SI 1999 with 88K, for 8995 from a dealer with a 3yr warranty. I really want the SI but it seems a bit to expensive compared to a EX. Any input and advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance!

    Nissan Altima

    I’ve decided on getting the 08 Honda Civic EX with Navigation System, but why should I get a Honda and not the other? They cost the same look they same.. I am so confused.

    Hi, Some of my rear suspension nuts and bolt are almost stripped and rusted to bits so naturally i wana replace them.

    After asking for some prices from my nearest honda dealer it turns out for about 16 bolts and 4 nuts its about £100.
    This to me is completely a rip off. they charge on avg £6 a bolt and £2 a bolt?

    Is this about the correct pricing or is this person im dealign with at honda making some profit himself?

    Also is there a place where i can order these from or do all garages just get them from the honda dealer.

  • Honda?????

    MikeB asked:

    I’m going to buy a new car and I’m curious as to why so many people drool over hondas and acuras (civics, integras, rsx, etc) and put all kinds of aftermarket accessories.

    Personally, I think most hondas (not all acuras) look kinda cheesy, especially the older ones with the exhausts and body kits. Also, looking at the 0-60 times, they don’t compare to other sports cars. For example, the new civic si is 1 second slower than the new altima v6 coupe and 2 seconds slower than a mustang gt.

    What makes honda such a great racer company?? Maybe I’m just not getting something

    Hi. A firend of mine recently bought a 07 Honda Fit S in So. Cal area. The dealer did not want to get rid of added markup of $1000 even though we tried for like 4 hours. It stated as $1695 markup on window sticker. They determined that they can sell Fit with $1000 markup to other customers no problem. (Fit is recentely a popular car in So. Cal area, and we can’t find any dealer who won’t charge markups.)
    Can anybody know actual breakdown of costs for low-cost, super-popular cars like this? Does anybody know specific info for Honda Fit? (I would assume profit margin is very slim, since Honda is importing these cars from Japan, and base price is low.)
    How much are we really getting bitten?
    The dealer also had CIVIC Si both in Coupe and Sedan with $5000 markup on window sticker. Does this sound right to you?
    Does anybody know why this dealer is so bold charging us with extra?

    Bungle B asked:

    I recently purchased a 2007 Honda Civic DX Base Model about 4 months ago, at a price of $17,500, plus $2000 down payment including Tax/Licensing/Plate/Deaer Fees, for a total of $19500.

    I have owned it for 4 months now, financed the car for 4.9% APR for 5 years, and I currently owe $16k on the vehicle, at a monthly payment of almost exctly $300 per month, with 4.5 years remaining.

    The car is in pristine shape, no accidents, or damages. It has about 7500 highway miles on it, and looks and drives perfectly new.

    I obviously love the car, but I think I need a bigger car - an SUV would be great.

    Can someone give me advice on what I can do to either (1) Trade my Honda for a comparable SUV? or (2) How I can re-sell it outside of a dealership for best value?

    Should I go to a dealership? The same Honda dealership told me that I can trade it in for $13k, which seems ridiculous to me. Help?

    jesse w asked:

    I’m in the process of getting a motorcycle as a x-mas gift to my self. I’m new in this world of motorcycles and I finally came down to my best two options.
    Option # 1 is a 2007 Honda Shadow Spirit 750C2
    Option # 2 is a 2007 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Custom
    Please don’t be offended if I say that I kinda like the looks of the Vulcan 900 a little better. My thing is that I know the name Honda is just one of the best. The price is around the same (only 550 diff) between the two. The Honda did felt a bit more comfortable than the Kawasaki but the looks brings me back to kawasaki. Here are my questions. Is Kawasaki as good and reliable as honda? I know that there is a 158 cc diff so would that be a noticeable difference? I kinda see the Vulcan as a more value bike due to for only $550 more you get fuel injection, fuel gauge, bigger engine, some really nice wheels and a more aggressive look. So taking all considerations would a Vulcan 900 Custom be a better bike?
    Pls help Tks
